What I would do is:
    1) make sure my KDCs were configured "--with-kdc-kdb-update" when built
    2) make sure all users' principals had the REQUIRES_PRE_AUTH attribute
    3) then I would look through my latest krop dump for lines starting with
       "princ" and grab the 7th and 13th fileds.  For example:

princ	38	16	3	1	0	john at IASTATE.EDU	128	2592000	2592000	2019707940	0	1263942513	1263938175	0	...	-1;

     in this case, field 13 is "1263942513" which is:
         Tue Jan 19 17:08:33 CST 2010

     same as you can see in kadmin[.local]:

kadmin.local:  getprinc john
